How long do you reckon it'll take for the group to get there?

Who is going to make up the tail end of the group during the ride? i.e. we know that if riders A, B & C have reached the rest stops everyone has gotten there safely.

If necessary Im happy to be one of those riding right at the back of the group.

You dont need back brakes unless it is a gravel road or racing.

What about right hand rear sets? They're a bit of a luxury item too aren't they?

Not so, you can't make such a general comment. YOU may not need them except on gravel, etc, but other people who have a different style of riding use their rear brake all the time.

Thank you for your offer, you are now added to the list of people taking turns to ride at the back.

Add me to the list MR!!!

I'll have my camera with me, so watch out Ricksta - no wayward trips into those nice farmers drains mate.

Ill be at the back because Im still a noob and I have the slowest bike from all of yous.

which is a good thing cos then I can record the bikes infront of me

assuming the weather doesnt turn foul. Ill fit it at autobahn and turn it on just past the tuakau bridge. hopefully gloved finger will make the right contact :/ or someone infront of me can press record on the remote lol.
